Hi Roxann, you can try to put oil additive, or use thicker oil for high milleage cars.
To know, white smoke is coolant, blueish white smoke is oil. Another hint is the smell, coolant is sweet smelling.
Might try a thicker oil with some Lucas (even thicker additive). Other than that, I would not use any stop leak or garbage like that.
Have a nice day!
